With its extensive list of partnering Australian schools, AUG helps parents identify the right school for their child when finding a match isn’t always easy.
As James points out, getting into school in Australia –whether public or private –isn’t the same as getting into university there.
While Australian schools have limited spots for international applicants, an overwhelming number of students from Asia and the rest of the world are all vying for these limited spaces.
“The Australian schools are still very catered for local students and finding the right school takes a lot of proper matching, almost like finding a husband or wife,” James quips.
“There’s a lot more effort needed to find the right place. There is a right school for every single child - it’s all about exploring what’s available out there and what your child wants.
“We may get kids who specifically want a school that plays golf, offers scuba diving or horse-riding; some kids may want a school with a strong music and arts background, a school inside the city or outside it, others may not be suited for boarding life at all.
“That’s where we come in, to help families and young children find that perfect match.” James says.
